Morgan Plus Six vs Morgan Plus Four, 2022 vs 2023 and Brands Hatch Morgan

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

I’ve owned a Morgan LM62 Plus Four 2022 for 18 months and now own a 2023 Plus Six. This is a quick review of the changes between the 2022 model and the 2023 model, the space difference between the Plus Four and the Plus SIx. I might mention the only downside of the Plus Six for people with little legs….once or twice. I swing by ​⁠@BrandsHatchMorgan and have a look at two beautifully spec’d cars. The Aston Martin Orange is simply stunning on the Plus Four; with modern alloys and the striking colour and a simple yet effective colour combination for the interior, just wow. This seems a little unfair on the Plus Six that sits along side it. It differs in such a small way from the Plus Four, yet the small change gives it a stance which hints strongly at the power and performance, (in the next video I’ll be exploring the character of the drive of both cars), this car is more subtle in it’s approach, with a colour more suited to the less shouty of us. This is not to say it doesn’t stand out, with black alloys that fill the wheel arch, pin strip inlay interior; this is a very smart looking car.

    Thanks so much for your videos. The Mog three wheelers have finally arrived in N. America but still no relyable word on the PlusFours. The US version of the Morgan Web Site only alloys for configuration of the three wheelers at the moment. I have been told the PlusSix will never make it here. I'll be fine with a PlusFour, should they ever actually become available. Thanks again for your videos and Happy Holidays.

    I’ve been told US dealerships can take orders, not that that helps with timings. Have you got any ideas on the spec you’ll choose?

    Thank you for this vidéo Julian. Not very helpful to choose between a 4 & 6😂. The engine noise looks sportier with the Plus 6. Do you regret the manual gearbox of your last Plus Four? Was it more agile than your 6? Is the Plus Six more "supercar" than the Plus Four? Thank you for your thoughts!!

    The plus 6 feels like a cut above and a bit more ‘intensional’. I don’t miss the manual, although I do have two other cars with a stick to keep that driver experience.

    I've had test drives in early and recent Plus Sixes, as well as the manual and auto Plus Four, and I was surprised how much I preferred the Six. The extra performance certainly puts a smile on your face, and the extra bit of width in the cabin felt more comfortable to me. I like your video reminding me of the details in the car. Nice to get a close look at things again!

    There really is an extra something about the Six. So glad I made the change

    Thanks for the video and love the spec of your plus 6. Gorgeous colour combo. I currently drive a ‘77 Porsche 911 Targa and I’m seriously considering selling it to get a Plus 4. I popped into Brands Hatch Morgan a few weeks ago to look at their Sports Grey one. The only thing putting me off is am I too young to drive a Morgan at 48??? 😂

    I had a manual plus 4 22model. The changes on the 23 make a huge difference. I’d advise (controversially) the auto. Just take one for a drive and you’ll see how good the handling and performance are. There are a couple of good switchbacks on the road from Ightham to the top of Wrotham hill/ west kingsdown near brands hatch Morgan. You don’t need to be going fast to have a lot of smiles on those corners. As for the age thing…. It’s all about the spec. I’d make it mean looking. Full on aggression. Otherwise it can be too ‘country drive’ opposed to ‘blast down the lanes’ in appearance. If you can stretch to the plus 6, then do it. The stance gives it a bit more presence….. and crazy performance. Although the plus four won’t disappoint. Tell Sarah and she’ll help you hit the mark. Don’t forget, they’ll pretty much do anything you ask for.

    There are more accomplished cars for less money, yet they’re never going to make you feel how a Morgan feels.

    It isn’t the prettiest. Feels good in your hands though.
